Mac OS X Operating system is undoubtedly the only operating system for a computer which is compatible with a huge array of brilliantly designed applications that are user friendly as well as reliable. Although the Windows Operating system also supports a lot of applications, the Mac operating systems are comparatively higher in ranks, when it comes to applications and their functionalities.
For people who are passionate in writing books and publishing them, Apple’s Mac and iOS operating systems offered great support with the recent launch of an application which allows users to create e-books. The app named iBooks gained instant popularity and a big following among Mac users. The iBooks Author application has a lot of users now and Apple apparently knew the app would be well received. It seems Jumsoft, popular application developers for Mac and iOS also sees an opportunity with the success of iBooks.
The fact that Jumsoft released a set of templates just after two weeks of the launch of iBooks Author application by Apple proves the theory. The app called Book Palette which is now out for sale in Mac app store features 10 perfectly functional templates. The templates are pretty cool and will definitely improve the looks of the e-Books created with the iBooks author app as they offer a number of creative options and useful tools.
General Manager of Jumsoft, Algirdas Unguvaitis said that they were quite excited when they heard the news of the launch of Apple’s iBooks author and by the next day, came up with the idea of Book Palette. Algirdas also commented that Jumsoft expects positive feedbacks from iBooks users, and that they would soon start working on expanding the template range.
iBooks users would be able to use the Book Palette templates to create e-Books ranging from normal cookbooks to big time business publications. In addition to the page layouts, the templates will have page covers as well. There will also be a number of different text styles and other options for making the e-Books more vivid and attractive. Book Palette also offers the users, the option to remove, recolor or move the elements in the app.
The Book Palette also matches the Gallery and other widgets that come with the iBooks application and also allows the users to make necessary modifications in them.
